Why Property Investors Prefer Buying Buildings Over Houses

Written by Saliha Aziz | Feb 14, 2025 2:23:59 PM

When it comes to property investment, many investors are choosing buildings instead of houses. The reason is simple: they offers more value, less hassle, and better returns. From easier maintenance to higher rental income, they are becoming the top choice for smart investors.

At One Homes, we understand why investors are shifting their focus to high-end buildings. Our projects, such as One Canal Road, are designed with modern amenities and luxury features and is backed by multiple global partners, including Versace Ceramics, Kobi Karp Architect, and ZKLD studio, making them highly attractive to investors and residents. With strong rental demand and premium facilities, our developments offer a clear edge over standalone houses.

Hassle-Free Maintenance

One of the biggest reasons investors prefer building units is the ease of maintenance. Unlike houses, where owners must handle everything from plumbing issues to lawn care, buildings are fully managed by the building authorities. From fire safety to security and cleaning services, everything is taken care of. Investors can enjoy peace of mind knowing their property is always up to standard without any direct involvement.

Higher Rental Returns

Building units typically offer better rental returns compared to houses. The reason? Renters are interested in all-in-one amenities they offer. Facilities like pools, gyms, cafes, and concierge services increase demand of these projects. Hence, owners can charge a higher rent than they would for a house.

Moreover, tenants are highly drawn to  community-style living. Buildings become more than homes for them. They can easily go to shops, restaurants, and entertainment stops within the community. This allows owners to earn a higher rental yield.

More Safety and Security

Safety is a major concern for both investors and tenants. Buildings are equipped with modern safety systems, all managed by the building authorities. From 24/7 security and surveillance to fire safety systems, residents enjoy a level of security that standalone houses simply cannot offer.

Luxury Amenities and Modern Living

Buildings often come with premium amenities that houses lack. One such example is One Canal Road by One Homes. This development has exclusive access for residents to everything from a rooftop pool and theater to spa and resident’s cafe. These features create a luxury living experience that drives high demand from tenants and ensures strong rental returns.

Better Value for Foreign Investors

For those seeking foreign investment opportunities, luxury developments are a top choice. They are easy to manage from abroad, offer high rental yields, and are located in prime urban areas. With the growing demand for luxury living spaces, buildings offer a secure and profitable property investment option.
